*Rachel's POV*

"Well I'm going to head back over to my place now, bye," I tell Julia.

"Ok but are you sure you don't want me to drive you if you get lost just call me and I'll take you the rest way bye," she says. I wave goodbye to her and walk out. Over the last few hours Julia and I bonded really well and we found out she lives around a block away from me. I was thinking about the events of the day when I was pulled into an alley. I was about to scream when a hand was placed over my mouth. The man who had placed his hand over my mouth took his other hand and injected something in my arm causing me to fall limp to the ground. All I can do right now is cry. He pulls off my clothing and I already know what will happen next. After he completed his 'task' he left me crying and sobbing uncontrollably.

After about twenty minutes of sobbing five figures enter the alley and I immediately mask them as the boys.

"Rachel?" Niall asks him voice soft and delicate as if he talks louder he will break out in sobs. He nears me and I flinch. His eyes show hurt and I feel guilt wash over my body. It's happened again I'm such a waste of space.

"I-I'm s-s-sorry," I whisper still sobbing.

"Here,"Liam says and hands me his jacket. I place it over my cold shivering body. Louis picks me up despite my protests and flinching and he carries me back to the house.

When we get to the house the boys tell me to go upstairs and wash up, which I do not refuse to do. I take off my bandage to reveal the words help, broken and a very deep cut. Great, I was almost healed from my past now its just like day one but I know this house and everything about these people now. Right when I thought I was fixed I shattered again. Why do people do these things? Can't I just have a normal life. Before I start thinking about killing myself again I jump in the shower and start singing.

"Off she trots to the psychiatric hospital

all she's got is the memory of a girl who used to laugh a lot

now she's very angry cause they say she's lost the plot

and she's laughing the mirror at her paper dress

cause she's got a troubled mind

a troubled mind

Rosie Black

she walked in here wired up on crack

its for the kids who have low self esteem

they've got no concept of reality

living their lives inside a fantasy

cause they have troubled minds

troubled minds

wipe the white golden dust into these

broken hands

must depend on a friend that will understand

like the glitter making love to them gleam

just remember things aren't always what they seem

peter pan

could not admit he had become a man

he smashed the mirror into a million bit

now all he seems to do is stare and sit

paintings pictures of a life

that he'll never find
